Firefly episode 14 ‘Objects in Space’, is about River saving the crew and get’s the crew’s trust. In the first part of the episode, there were some problems between River and the crew members. River was holding a stick. However, the crew members thought that she is holding a gun. They were discussing about how to treat River. Simon was telling that River will not harm anyone and she does not know how to shoot a gun. However, Kaylee was arguing that she shoot 3 people before to rescue Mal. Then, they were about to ask River and Simon to leave the Serenity for crew member’s safe. That night, a ship came to Serenity and a man called Jubal Early entered the Serenity. He tied Kaylee and found Simon. He pointed Simon with a gun and made him to find River. However, they could not bind River easily. So, they broadcast to the ship and tried to make River hear that if she does not come, then he will shot Simon. By this broadcast, crew members woke up and tried to make a plan with River to save Simon. River went to the Early’s ship because she thought that the crew members do not need her and it will be alright to go with Early. Simon tried to attack Early, but he got shot in his leg. However, Mal attacked Early and made him to go away which was part of the plan they planned earlier. River got back to the Serenity and now everyone in the crew believes River. I think Early was a good guy that helped River to solve her problem with the crew members.
